Despite the title, it's not a superhero movie. The movie's title is spun from the conceit that this is the story of a 5,300 corpse found in an Alpine glacier in 1991. His story is a Neolithic revenge tale, and something of low budget European spoiler for Alpha, the Hollywood Ice Age drama coming out in August. It's not quite a caveman movie. There is language - an early version of Rhaetic that is not subtitled – weapons, and most people live in wooden huts. But there is no society, just individual men and women and their families, looking after themselves and then their neighbours, and when some other individual men kill his family and destroy his home, the lead character (Vogel) starts to track them through some splendid Alpine scenery for revenge, and the return of his favourite trinket. It's an Alt-right fantasy – no political correctness and no red tape.

My problem with the film is that it doesn't seem elemental enough. Civilisation is beginning to stir but even so surely this should be a little more barbaric? The future iceman hunts and kills but it seems domesticated to a new man degree. His trail of righteous vengeance is more of a vigorous hike in the mountains and his fur clothes and boots seem UGG cosy. To be honest I could imagine the lead actor Vogel lighting up a pipe and relaxing in his trailer the moment the director calls “cut.” This Iceman coneths.
